Business Rewards Program - Aquire

Save on airfares. Earn Aquire Points.

Aquire is Australia's business rewards program aimed at helping your business save money and reward employees. With a wide range of partners, including Westpac, GIO Business Insurance, Avis and Budget car hire, your business could earn Aquire Points1 on business expenses that can be turned into real rewards. Plus with Aquire Flight Deals1 your business can enjoy up front savings on selected airfares.

That's good business.

Turn Business Travel into Business Rewards

Earn up to 5 Aquire Points for your business for every 10 Qantas Points earned by your travellers when they fly for business purposes.

Earn Aquire Points on every eligible Qantas flight4 that has a QF flight number and is operated by Qantas, Emirates or American Airlines across our domestic and international network.

Travellers continue to earn Qantas Points and Status Credits5 as they usually would.

Upfront Flight Savings

Aquire Flight Deals1 are upfront savings of up to 10% off the base fare on selected domestic and international airfares on Qantas marketed and operated flights and with selected partner airlines. You can book online through Qantas Business Direct or through a participating Travel Agent. Book in advance to save and watch your travel dollar stretch further.

Earning from Flying is Simple

Only 2 travellers and a minimum of 20,000 Aquire Points are all that's required each membership year to qualify to earn from flying.

Simply ensure that you include your business' ABN and the traveller's Qantas Frequent Flyer number in every booking.

3 Aquire Points for every 10 Qantas Points for Economy and Discount Economy.

For example:

Flexible Economy between Melbourne and Sydney return earns:

2,400 Qantas Points for your traveller

960 Aquire Points for your business

Business between Melbourne and London return earns:

37,200 Qantas Points for your traveller

14,800 Aquire Points for your business

Discount Economy between Sydney and Auckland return earns:

2,000 Qantas Points for your traveller

600 Aquire Points for your business

Earn Aquire Points across Qantas' extensive domestic and international network. Any flight that has a QF flight number and is operated by Qantas, Emirates or American Airlines could earn your business Aquire Points.

Once you reach your Qantas Annual Earn Target of 20,000 Aquire Points and 2 travellers, your business could earn between 20,000 and 1,000,000 Aquire Points per year flying with Qantas. The Aquire Points earned from flying can then be combined with Aquire Points earned from all other Aquire partners to use on a range of rewards.

All your business needs to do within each membership year to reach the Qantas Annual Earn Target is:

Simply accrue a minimum of 20,000 Aquire Points; and

Ensure 2 or more travellers have flown under your ABN.

Aquire Points from flying will initially appear separately as 'pending' on your activity statement until you reach the Qantas Annual Earn Target. So you can easily see how many Aquire Points your business needs to earn to reach the target.

The number of Aquire Points earned for each flight varies depending on the fare type, cabin and trip length. The number of trips required to reach the Qantas Annual Earn Target can range from as little as 2 return trips, up to 42 return trips.

Here are a few examples of how many trips might be needed to reach the Qantas Annual Earn Target:

1 return trip between Sydney and London in Flexible Business, and 1 return trip between Sydney and Melbourne in Discount Economy earns 22,180 Aquire Points.

There are many ways your business can be rewarded when earning Aquire Points from flying, or with other Aquire Partners.

Aquire Points convert to Qantas Points at a rate of 1:17 to any Qantas Frequent Flyer account. Qantas Points can be used or reward flights and upgrades on Qantas operated services with a QF flight number8. Qantas Points can also be used for reward flights on our partner airlines, covering more of the world than any other loyalty program in Australia.

Classic Flight Rewards9

Use Qantas Points for Classic Flight Rewards to offset the cost of future business travel trips, to recognise and reward employees or to be used for a well deserved break.

Here are a few examples of Classic Flight Rewards available once your business' Aquire Points have been converted to Qantas Points.

Points Plus Pay - Flights10

Points Plus Pay11 is a great option to save money on future business or leisure flights, especially if your preferred Classic Flight Reward is not available. It allows Qantas Frequent Flyer members to obtain flights with a mixture of Qantas Points and money at qantas.com.

The more points used, the less money paid. You can think about the Qantas Points applied as offsetting the costs of your future flights. You can choose a combination of Qantas Points and Cash that provides the right value for you with each booking.
